Take a run along the harbor!

The hotel is simple spartan and clean. No carpet in the rooms and European design it works fine. Only breakfast is served, the nice buffet is reasonable and mix of east and west. Within a couple of blocks are two grocery stores, several local restaurants, and convenience stores. The tram runs right outside. In reality it's about a 15 minute walk to Central and you're on the far edge of Sheung Wan. CWB or TST have more interesting (touristy) areas right outside, but this location is fine especially if you plan to spend lots of time on Hong Kong Island.

The staff were plenty friendly and helpful.

If you are a runner or even a walker this place has a special secret. In a couple of minutes you can easily cross the highway and get over to the harbor promenade. Turn left and you've got a few hundred meters of walking area. Turn right and you can jog all the way down to the convention center in lunch, a couple of kilometers along the waters edge. You need to skirt around the ferry terminal a little bit but otherwise it's made for pedestrians, with lots to see. I spent an hour jogging down and back and it's a memory I'll treasure for years.

Glad that you had a pleasant stay with us and had a nice walk near Sun Yat Sen Memorial Park!

We would kindly recommend you to explore Cat Street, Man Mo Temple and Hollywood Road which will feast your eyes with an array of heritage, antiques, and art galleries, another local gem in Hong Kong. It would take you around 10 minutes on foot from our Hotel.

We look forward to serving you again in the near future!

Really nice hotel to stay in Hong Kong, just a 5 min quick walk to Sheung Wan metro station then away you go in HK ! Pleasant staff on reception, clean, good size room and free WIFI. Ask for a high floor room overlooking the harbour for a stunning view to wake up to ! A little confusing when you arrive as the reception is not on the ground floor but the concierge will point you in the right direction. There is a convenience store next to the hotel plus a Starbucks downstairs. Would certainly stay again, excellent value for money.

Room Tip: Ask for a high floor with a harbour view

For the sake of the security and privacy concern of our guests, our check-in counters are located on 5/F. We have assigned one security team member to stand by at our ground floor lobby for 24 hours to ensure guest safety and to direct our guests to the reception for check-in.

We definitely look forward to serving you again in the near future!

Stayed here for one night while in transit for 20 hours. Location is good - very close to Macau ferry terminal. Rooms are massive, and spotlessly clean. Price was excellent too. The only thing I had an issue with is the attitude of the staff... on check in at 1am the man at the desk was helpful, but on checking out and leaving my bags behind the desk for the afternoon the staff I delt with were very abrupt - when I picked up my bag the staff member did not utter a single word! I would stay here again, but don't expect anyone to smile.

Booked this hotel more out of availability and pricing than anything. Very glad we did. Would highly recommend it to anyone. Very clean, good room size and only 5-7 minute walk to the MTR and free in room wifi. Only negative is the bar staff will NOT give you any glasses or ice for your room. Apart from that it's a great base to explore Hong Kong. Free shuttle bus service from Hong Kong MTR to the hotel and back.

TIP: Get an "on loan" octopus card. You add as and when you need it. $50 HKG will last 2 days minimum. To Ngong Ping return its only $40 which was the most expensive return journey we made.

Considering hotel prices in HK, this Ibis is an excellent option! The rooms might not be huge, but within the same budget you won't find huge hotel rooms in Hong Kong anyway. Plus, everything is new, modern and functional.

As a negative, I'd just mention that they advertise breakfast from 4.30AM onwards but, during our stay (when we needed it in one of the days), that wasn't the case. No big deal.

Internet was great during our first days, but then it became a little flaky. Still OK in general.

We sincerely apologize for the misleading message that had confused you about our breakfast arrangement. For your information, buffet breakfast serves from 6.30 am to 11.00 am daily at TASTE (6/F) while light breakfast options are available at LE BAR (5/F) from 4.00 am to 6.30 am and 11.00 am to 12.00 noon daily.

We sincerely welcome you to pay us a visit again and allow us to serve you better next time.
